Tiaras seem to be one aspect of bridal fashion that really do divide people, with some brides seeing them as an essential accessory while others baulk at the idea of the sparkly bits of headwear, opting instead for a full or mini veil, fascinator – or nothing.

Personally, I don’t like tiaras, as I gave up on the idea of being a princess when I was five (miaow!). But I’ve known grown women who seem to be otherwise mature and sophisticated adults go crazy for a well-made tiara and pay good money for it. Where do you sit on this one?
